1a) Bill and the dog must have a speed of 13.0 m/s

1b) The speed of the dog must be 22.5 m/s

2a) The ball passes over the outfielder's head at 3.33 s

2b) The ball passes 1.2 m above the glove

2c) The player can jump after 2.10 s or 3.13 s after the ball has been hit

2d) One solution is when the player is jumping up, the other solution is when the player is falling down

Explanation:

1a)

The motion of the ball in this problem is a projectile motion, so it follows a parabolic path which consists of two independent motions:

- A uniform motion (constant velocity) along the horizontal direction

- An accelerated motion with constant acceleration (acceleration of gravity) in the vertical direction

In part a), we want to know at what speed Bill and the dog have to run in order to intercept the ball as it lands on the ground: this means that Bill and the dog must have the same velocity as the horizontal velocity of the ball.

The ball's initial speed is

u = 15 m/s

And the angle of projection is

\theta=30^{\circ}

So, the ball's horizontal velocity is

v_x = u cos \theta = (15)(cos 30)=13.0 m/s

And therefore, Bill and the dog must have this speed.

1b)

For this part, we have to consider the vertical motion of the ball first.

The vertical position of the ball at time t is given by

y=u_yt+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

u_y = u sin \theta = (15)(sin 30) = 7.5 m/s is the initial vertical velocity

a=g=-9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

The ball is at a position of y = 2 m above the ground when:

2=7.5t + \frac{1}{2}(-9.8)t^2\\4.9t^2-7.5t+2=0

Which has two solutions: t=0.34 s and t=1.19 s. We are told that the ball is falling to the ground, so we have to consider the second solution, t = 1.19 s.

The horizontal distance covered by the ball during this time is

d=v_x t =(13.0)(1.19)=15.5 m

The dog must be there 0.5 s before, so at a time

t' = t - 0.5 = 0.69 s

So, the speed of the dog must be

v_x' = \frac{d}{t'}=\frac{15.5}{0.69}=22.5 m/s

2a)

Here we just need to consider the horizontal motion of the ball.

The horizontal distance covered is

d=98 m

while the horizontal velocity of the ball is

v_x = u cos \theta = (34)(cos 30)=29.4 m/s

where u = 34 m/s is the initial speed.

So, the time taken for the ball to cover this distance is

t=\frac{d}{v_x}=\frac{98}{29.4}=3.33 s

2b)

Here we need to calculate the vertical position of the ball at t = 3.33 s.

The vertical position is given by

y= h + u_y t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

where

h = 1.2 m is the initial height

u_y = u sin \theta = (34)(sin 30)=17.0 m/s is the initial vertical velocity

a=g=-9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

Substituting t = 3.33 s,

y=1.2+(17)(3.33)+\frac{1}{2}(-9.8)(3.33)^2=3.5 m

And sinc the glove is at a height of y' = 2.3 m, the difference in height is

y - y' = 3.5 - 2.3 = 1.2 m

2c)

In order to intercept the ball, he jumps upward at a vertical speed of

u_y' = 7 m/s

So its position of the glove at time t' is

y'= h' + u_y' t' + \frac{1}{2}at'^2

where h' = 2.3 m is the initial height of the glove, and t' is the time from the moment when he jumps. To catch the ball, the height must be

y' = y = 3.5 m (the height of the ball)

Substituting and solving for t', we find

3.5 = 2.3 + 7t' -4.9t'^2\\4.9t'^2-7t'+12 = 0

Which has two solutions: t' = 0.20 s, t' = 1.23 s. But this is the time t' that the player takes to reach the same height of the ball: so the corresponding time after the ball has been hit is

t'' = t -t'

So we have two solutions:

t'' = 3.33 s - 0.20 s = 3.13 s\\t'' = 3.33 s - 1.23 s = 2.10 s

So, the player can jump after 2.10 s or after 3.13 s.

2d)

The reason for the two solutions is the following: the motion of the player is a free fall motion, so initially he jump upwards, then because of gravity he is accelerated downward, and therefore eventually he reaches a maximum height and then he  falls down.

Therefore, the two solutions corresponds to the two different part of the motion.

The first solution, t'' = 2.10 s, is the time at which the player catches the ball while he is in motion upward.

On the other hand, the second solution t'' = 3.13 s, is the time at which the player catches the ball while falling down.

A golf ball is released from rest from the top of a very tall building. Choose a coordinate system whose origin is at the starti
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Velocity of the ball after 3.04 (s) = 29.79 (m/s)

Explanation:

From the free fall movement we have the following formulas: Vf^{2} = Vo^{2} - 2gh and h=Vo*t - \frac{g*t^{2} }{2}, First we need to find the height to time iqual to 3.04 s using the formula: h=Vo*t - \frac{g*t^{2} }{2} and remember that golf ball was released from the rest (Vo= 0 (m/s)) so h= (0 (m/s))*(3.04 (s)) - \frac{9.8 (m/s^2)*(3.04 (s))^{2} }{2}, we get: h = -45.28 (m) with the height that we have got, now the velocity of the ball is calculate using Vf^{2} = Vo^{2} - 2gh solving for Vf, we get: Vf = \sqrt{Vo^{2}-2*g*h } replacing the values given Vf = \sqrt{(0 m/s)^{2}-2*(9.8 m/s^2)*(-45.28 m) }, so we get: Vf = 29.79 (m/s).

If the velocity of a pitched ball has a magnitude of 44.5 m/s and the batted ball's velocity is 55.5 m/s in the opposite directi
Lelu [443]

Answer:

ΔP = 14.5 Ns

I = 14.5 Ns

ΔF = 5.8 x 10³ N = 5.8 KN

Explanation:

The mass of the ball is given as 0.145 kg in the complete question. So, the change in momentum will be:

ΔP = mv₂ - mv₁

ΔP = m(v₂ - v₁)

where,

ΔP = Change in Momentum = ?

m = mass of ball = 0.145 kg

v₂ = velocity of batted ball = 55.5 m/s

v₁ = velocity of pitched ball = - 44.5 m/s (due to opposite direction)

Therefore,

ΔP = (0.145 kg)(55.5 m/s + 44.5 m/s)

<u>ΔP = 14.5 Ns</u>

The impulse applied to a body is equal to the change in its momentum. Therefore,

Impulse = I = ΔP

<u>I = 14.5 Ns</u>

the average force can be found as:

I = ΔF*t

ΔF = I/t

where,

ΔF = Average Force = ?

t = time of contact = 2.5 ms = 2.5 x 10⁻³ s

Therefore,

ΔF = 14.5 N.s/(2.5 x 10⁻³ s)

<u>ΔF = 5.8 x 10³ N = 5.8 KN</u>

A car with a mass of 1380 Kg is traveling at 23 m/s to the north. A truck with a mass of 1625 Kg is traveling at 26 m/s to the s
trasher [3.6K]

Answer: -3.49 m/s (to the south)

Explanation:

This problem can be solved by the Conservation of Momentum principle which establishes the initial momentum p_{i} must be equal to the final momentum p_{f}, and taking into account this is aninelastic collision:

Before the collision:

p_{i}=mV_{o}+MU_{o} (1)

After the collision:

p_{f}=(m+M)V_{f} (2)

Where:

m=1380 kg is the mass of the car

V_{o}=23 m/s is the velocity of the car, directed to the north

M=1625 kg is the mass of the truck

U_{o}=-26 m/s is the velocity of the truck, directed to the south

V_{f} is the final velocity of both the car and the truck

p_{i}=p_{f} (3)

mV_{o}+MU_{o}=(m+M)V_{f} (4)

Isolating V_{f}:

V_{f}=\frac{mV_{o}+MU_{o}}{m+M} (5)

V_{f}=\frac{(1380 kg)(23 m/s)+(1625 kg)(-26 m/s)}{1380 kg+1625 kg} (6)

Finally:

V_{f}=-3.49 m/s The negative sign indicates the direction of the velocity is to the south
